RESUMEN
@#ObjectiveTo study the possibility of the liver histioid construction through co-culturing hepatocytes and sinusoidal vessel endothelial cells (SVECs) on hyaluronic acid(HA) scaffold.MethodsHepatocytes and SVECs of a mouse were isolated respectively, and then were cultured successively in HA scaffold. The scaffold-cell complexes formed later were implanted onto the surfaces of liver in the mouse. After 2 weeks, the implants were taken out for HE staining and compatibility evaluation.ResultsThe isolated hepatocytes and SVECs were vigorous. The implants inosculated well with liver tissue of the host with visible growth of blood vessels in the implants. The hepatocyte aggregation grown around the vessels, the liver-like tissue, were observed.ConclusionIt is feasible to construct liver histioid through co-culturing hepatocytes and sinusoidal vessel endothelial cells on hyaluronic acid scaffold.
